Jake Xerxes Fussell - When I'm Called (2024)
Jake Xerxes Fussell's When I'm Called is a deeply rooted exploration of folk traditions, reimagined through his gentle, contemporary lens. The album captures a timeless quality, drawing from field recordings and traditional songs, yet Fussell breathes new life into these pieces with his warm vocals and minimalist arrangements. The collaboration with artists like Blake Mills and Joan Shelley enriches the album’s texture, blending historical reverence with modern sensibility. While the album occasionally skirts the line of becoming too reflective, it ultimately stands as a heartfelt tribute to the enduring legacy of Southern folk music (No Depression) (Treble) (Folk Alley).
